anyone ever had these? I sauntered down to my corner store to see if I could maybe get the last Twinkie or Fried Pie, and all the Hostess products were cleared off and these were in their place. I've never seen these before.

I used to love their Coconut Juniors. I think they also had a mango pie that was pretty good.

sorry... I just had to go there (though Guilhermina won't know what they are or how to spell it)

Hunny chile, please. As it is La Wumpetta is taking a gargantuan step by venturing away from those horrific Twinkies. Lets give her an A for effort.

I bet you he's never had Argentinian alfajores de maicena (con dulce de leche) either. They go so nicely with a cortito de leche.

His most daring adventure with a Latino dessert/baked good is a churro from his local Tacky Hell.

That hot Jew Bourdain is eating with is the owner of my hipster heaven that makes that double-fried Korean chicken and donuts, though his main place is much more upscale and shown (for a brief second) in this clip.

Since Christmas is right around the corner I have been sampling tamales to decide which brand to order for Christmas Eve Dinner (It's a Texas thang)

Thus far I have tried Tellez, Teka Molino and Delicious . Normally I go with Delicious but last year they were a bit dry. Rubens is one of the best, but I havent had their Tamales in years so I need to go get a dozen tomorrow and check them out

Hey, guess what moron -- this was the very first time ever that Bourdain has done a show in Philly. You're obviously confusing it with some other food show that incessantly shows us only eating cheesesteaks. Bourdain refused to 1) feature a single cheesesteak or 2) utter the word "Rocky"

Please buy a clue before you answer in such an embarrassing way to another of my posts thankuverymuch

Good for you. Something somewhat decent and authentic (at least not from the frozen food section or some taco joint owned and operated by a guy from Morocco). Be careful, girl. Being too adventurous might be hazardous to your taste.

Oh, and speaking of Bourdain, you should try his favorite delicacy: Icelandic HŠkarl. I wouldn't be surprised if Philicia had some during one of her European escapades.

When I lived in Liberty Hill, I always bought my Christmas tamales from an old guy who sold them out of the back of his pickup truck at the corner of Highway 29 and County Road 200, next to the Texaco station.

HIV is certainly character-building. It's made me see all of the shallow things we cling to, like ego and vanity. Of course, I'd rather have a few more T-cells and a little less character. Randy Shilts

By the way, this is why Texas isn't really Southern -- no Southerner has tamales for Christmas. I've only ever considered East Texas as resembling anything Southern. Are you telling me they even eat tamales all the way up to the border of Arkansas?

When I lived in San Diego I had a woman who came door to door selling tamales and other things homemade , it was really delicious . I finally began to place regular orders with her because the food was really good quality and rather inexpensive .

I still havent made it to Rubens, but I I picked up a dozen from El Maracumbe (MissP's fave place, you know the one with the Egyptian owner). I've had Tamales for 3 days in a row now

I don't know what draws people to this place cause the food is bland and there's nothing that I've had that drew me to keep coming here. I gave it a couple of different chances and I just don't dig it at all. The prices are cheap and yeah, your food comes out fairly quickly but I guess I'm just not getting it.

This is one of those hole-in-the-wall Mexican joints. The interior is decorated with junk from when they opened back in the 70's and the seats are covered in that plastic stuff that old Jewish women use to wrap their couches.

...

This used to be a pretty good restaurant, but having eaten there this evening after having been away for several months, I was grossly disappointed. The enchiladas and tortillas were dry, despite the amount of sauce I attempted to soak them in. The puffy taco was salty, but the flauta wasn't too bad.

There's nothing sadder than that lonely post-40 homosexual on the dance floor trolling for twinks.

You should probably just stick to some dark corner of a sex club and masturbate into a wet towel. At least you won't have to bother with an enema because goodness knows with what you eat you'd need to douche for several days.

WHAT??? You do know that American Horror Story is on tonight, girl. Hopefully you have the dvr set, that is, if you even have cable

Yes, well I'm coming down off my margarita high, and am developing one of this shitty happy hour well tequila headaches and have decided to stay home and soak my feet in epsom salt. (and look for a wet towel)

Limited Edition Chocolate Belles. It may just be a Texas thing since TK is trying to break into our South Texas Market after the demise of Hostess. I will keep you updated with anything else I find out.

According to the current issue of Philadelphia Magazine (which I read while having three tacos de carnitas and a Jarritos limon soda at El Jarocho ), the favored product among local TaskyKake cognescenti is the butterscotch Krimpets... just so ya know!

Please review my previous TastyKake Pictars and you will see that I bought some of the Butterscoth Krimpits....was NOT impressed. I think there is still one sitting on the table next to my bed. The only thing I've liked so far were the Cupcakes, so moist and yumyum.

Ps- yes, of course I bought them.

Tardy to the party, as usual Did you NOT see this shug?? I held some of those very same bells your ass is now ranting about in my hands on the same day I made that post. And they were some hard ass little fuckers, which made me think of you when I posted.

Hmm. I see. Well then what is so "Limited" about them if they are gonna be in every little fuckin store from here to NYC?

btw, I just had 2 of them and they were divine, and soooo moist. Too bad yours were had as rocks, LMAO.

I'm sure you must have eaten at StarBurger in Liberty Hill when you lived there. Sadly, this iconic building has burned down, never to be seen again.

I have just put a batch of GSOGYMRATS Turkey Chili into the Crock pot. (Pg 58 for you peeps that bought a cookbook). Let me tell you, it smells fabulous! It should be ready around 8-9 tonight, If yall are good I may post pics.

THis is some fantastic Chili! It's easily some of the best I've had. and quite easy to make... the only thing I omitted were the White Northern beans.

Ps- for dessert I am having Limited Edition Chocolate Bells

I won't even begin to tell you what that photo looks like, but if you take a look here, I'm sure you'd get the idea. No dis to Ford as I'm sure he's a much better cook than you since you chose to modify his recipe by your own admission.

Did you NOT get the memo? Some of us can get those damn bells all year round so what the hell is this limited shit? If you lived in a real city you could get some anytime you wanted to as well Maybe Philicia, The Rev, and me will take up a collection to send you a care package.
